With the advent of quantum computing, organizations must transition from legacy authentication methods to post-quantum authentication (PQA) before Q-Day — the point when quantum computers can break conventional encryption. However, switching to PQA isn’t just a technical upgrade; it’s a transformation that impacts user experience, security, and compliance.

European banks are already navigating complex regulatory changes, including PSD3/PSR and the EU Digital Identity Wallet. However, a third less visible but equally urgent challenge looms: Post-quantum cryptography (PQC). While compliance and digital identity projects dominate the conversation, banks must prepare for a cryptographic shift that will define the security of financial services in the next decade.

"Harvest now, decrypt later" has become the phrase on everyone’s lips when discussing post-quantum cryptography. The idea is simple: Adversaries collect encrypted data today and wait for the arrival of quantum computers that can break current encryption methods. But is this really the only threat we should focus on?

When exploring the various hard token types on the market, here’s why Talisman stands out as the top choice for banks and fintech companies.

If your business is new to post-quantum cryptography (PQC), now’s the time to start educating yourself on why it matters — and learn why the best time to migrate to quantum-resistant solutions was yesterday.

This year, the cyber-security and authentication landscape will be shaped by both an array of advancing threats and cutting-edge solutions.

Quantum computing is set to revolutionize technology, but it also presents a significant security risk for financial institutions. Czech cybersecurity startup Wultra has raised €3 million from Tensor Ventures, Elevator Ventures, and J&T Ventures to accelerate the development of its post-quantum authentication technology, safeguarding banks and fintech against the coming wave of quantum threats.

We’re excited to announce that our latest update to our mobile token now incorporates OIDC-based activation.

RBI’s new framework is just around the corner. Here’s what this initiative means for India’s banks and fintech companies.

In a landmark moment for cyber-security, the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) officially announced the finalization of its first set of post-quantum cryptography (PQC) standards in August 2024.
